Description
Summary:The study aims to investigate behaviour plus influence on the final load resistance of strengthen girders containing openings in web which were 40% of web height. This paper presents an experimental study of applying of five steel-concrete composite plate girder specimens that were loaded in shear predominantly. Three of those girders were considered as control girders, without web openings, containing circular web holes, and containing square web holes, respectively. Other two girders were strengthen girders. The slab reinforcement, dimensions of girders and compressive strength of concrete slabs were constant. Strengthening was made by using steel rings and strips which were welded to webs of strengthen girders to investigate influence of strengthening plan by steel welding on behaviour and final load strength for these girders. Findings illustrate increasing in final load strength of strengthen girders with circular and square web holes with about 57.38% and 43.75%, respectively in comparing to that for control girders. Moreover, the final shear capacity for the tested girders was also compared with that predicted by von Mises stresses.
